Ginny:  This is really not a security issue.  The PREFIX parm in the
DEVCLASS is used to create the data set name and when the import occurs,
it only has the PREFIX on the import DEVCLASS on which to build what it
thinks the name is on the tape to pass to the operating system.  In your
case, I would think the easiest way around this would be to create an
additional DEVCLASS on your import machine with the PREFIX you are
importing.

Sam and all other responses to my IMPORT TO ANOTHER SERVER posting:

     Thanks for all of the responses!  I will respond to each.

     Yes - the PREFIX value in the DEVCLASS config is different on the export
server vs. the import server.  The import server is a TEST server, and it does
create datasets with a different high-level qualifier (the export server is
ADSM.* and the import server ADSMTST.*).  But nothing is mentioned in the manual
regarding this having to be the same.  Do I have to change the name on my test
server to the same as my export server?  Should this really be a requirement in
the real world?  I.E., if I was doing this for purposes other than testing -
shouldn't I be able to import this node and its data without only importing it
to the same server that performed the export??
